It's definitely not 3/8-24 so it's not a SAE thread.
It must be a NPT thread.

Should be pipe thread ad 3/8 sounds right.
If it means a trip to hardware store get a couple different sizes.
The one or 2 I had to replace cause I LOST the dang things were cheap enough.

LOL 3/8 would be a little big
as mentioned latter 1/8

Well, it sort of depends on the year and model...
If it is the `98 in your sig, the plug would be a 1/8 pipe plug.

LOL, I actually started this thread while on the road looking for stuff, 1997, Fxdl, I’m pretty sure all Evo primary drain plugs are the same though.

Yup, I just bought two new ones for Primary and Tranny for fluid change. The old ones were original to my 96 FLSTN. Most dealers still carry them.
